Dear List,

I have simple question on CPMD in Quantum Espresso (V4.3). Can we use  
PAW pseudopotentials (psp) to perform CPMD (i.e. using cp.x) ? I tried  
but failed. I used the (water-) examples from  
http://people.sissa.it/~degironc/QE-Tutorial-less-old/tutorial_cp.htm.

It finely works with: O.BLYP.UPF and H.fpmd.UPF psp. files and shows  
the below error messages when I  change the psps, viz.,  
O.pbe-paw_kj.UPF  and H.pbe-paw_kj.UPF .

Have any idea on it?
If we can?t , what really block PAW from CPMD? (And I suppose PLUMED  
cannot also do any PAW based free energy calculations. Isn?t?)

With thanks and regards
